Oakland Ca Public Works

The city of Oakland on Thursday became the first city in the United States to begin distributing marijuana to ease the symptoms of the chronically ill. In an action that City Councilman Nate Miley portrayed as an act of moral courage, the city named operators of the Oakland Cannabis Buyers Cooperative as officers of the city and said they will distribute marijuana at their cooperative on the city's behalf. Miley said the city hopes the action will shield the club from the U.S.
